Interference is usually a byproduct of any title match in WWE. However, with both World Champions in the same match at Crown Jewel, the possibility increases greatly.

Cody Rhodes has had no shortage of run-ins as Undisputed WWE Champion. The American Nightmare pushed back attacks from the Bloodline, Logan Paul, Kevin Owens, and others.

Gunther's grating rhetoric against his opponents hasn't excused him from a potential blindside, either. The next four stars could interfere in their big match at Crown Jewel.


New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

#4. Randy Orton is never far from Cody Rhodes

The Viper may have to deal with his own problem at Crown Jewel, but he'll be in the same country this weekend. Orton is still loyal to The American Nightmare, but that could change at any minute.

Gunther toppled The Legend Killer at the Bash in Berlin, so he has links to both Champions vying for the Crown Jewel Championship.

If things get out of hand and Ludwig Kaiser rears his head, Orton could come down to even the odds. He could also prevent Kevin Owens from damaging Rhodes.


#3. Damian Priest wants a rematch with Gunther

When Gunther captured the World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam, he was helped by outside interference from Finn Balor. Balor was jealous that Damian Priest won the title he couldn't.

The Archer of Infamy wants a fair rematch since the last match didn't have a clean finish. He's already made that point to The Ring General, confronting him backstage during a recent episode of RAW.

If things get fishy during the title contest, Priest could interject himself to preserve a future title match with the man who took the Championship from him.


#2. Kevin Owens could go on a rampage at Crown Jewel

Kevin Owens had enough of everyone accepting the alliance between Roman Reigns and Rhodes. Reigns brutalized Owens for years and never apologized for those actions upon his return.

But fans don't like that Solo Sikoa is in charge of the Bloodline, so they've cheered loudly for Reigns. Owens tried to explain why Rhodes would join up with Reigns, but Cody never verbalized a viable reason for Owens.

Since everyone has magically forgiven The Original Tribal Chief, Owens could pop up during the match between Rhdoes and Gunther.

The contest will likely have a dirty finish to protect the losing Champion. Owens' interference would also lead to another match between the former friends.


#1. Goldberg wants one last match in WWE

While he hasn't been active in a few years, Goldberg popped up in Atlanta in early October at Bad Blood. Gunther insulted him during a segment and officials had to keep both stars from destroying each other.

That tease will come into play at some point, and it could even be as soon as Crown Jewel. The former WCW Champ has competed in Saudia Arabia for WWE and would be cheered again if he showed up.

Interference would provide an out for Gunther if he fell to Rhodes. It would also set up the match between Goldberg and The Ring General for Survivor Series.
